Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 290

The next morning, Shen Lingjun cautiously returned to the Yongning Marquis's residence.

Fortunately, Mo Zhonggui had already left without saying anything.

Shen Lingjun couldn't exhale a single breath.

She may be able to hide for a while, but she can't hide forever.

We can't tell the Shen family either, otherwise they'll definitely explode and probably start a fight with Mo Zhonggui right away.

I'm left to fend for myself.

Shen Lingjun took a nap, then put these random thoughts aside and continued to focus on refining the medicine.

Right now, we still need to focus all our attention on this medicine; curing Shen Jingyang's legs is her top priority.

......

The Marquis of Changguo's residence.

"How is the old lady?"

Marquis Changguo frowned and pressed an old imperial physician who came out from the inner room for answers.

The old physician shook his head helplessly: "The old lady is already advanced in years, and now she is suffering from a sudden attack of anger and liver qi stagnation. Her condition has reached a critical stage. Please forgive my lack of medical skills; I am powerless to help her."

Having said that, he did not linger any longer, exchanged a bow with the Marquis of Changguo, and withdrew.

The outer room was crowded with people, including the Lady of Changguo Marquis, Chu Tianming, Wei Yunluo, and others, and the atmosphere was oppressive.

Empress Chu was banished to the Cold Palace, and her title of Duke was reduced to Marquis. The Marquis of Changguo's mansion felt as if the sky had fallen, and even after so many days, it was still shrouded in gloom and despair.

The old lady of the Duke of Changguo was nearly seventy years old. When she first heard the news, she was so angry that she vomited blood and fainted on the spot.

He was finally revived, but he is still bedridden and his life hangs by a thread.

Marquis Changguo invited several famous doctors from the capital, but after examining the old lady of the Marquis Changguo, they all shook their heads repeatedly.

Marquis Changguo had originally intended to invite the most skilled imperial physician from the palace. However, the Chu family had fallen on hard times and their status was no longer what it once was; now they couldn't even get the imperial physician to come.

In the end, they only managed to find an old female doctor with mediocre skills, who also said that there was no cure.

Marquis Changguo frowned, his face grim.

The old lady has lived a life of luxury and wealth. At this advanced age, she should be enjoying her retirement, but she has been driven to this state by the troubles of the Chu family. If she cannot be saved, how will she have the face to face her ancestors in the future?

Marquis Changguo said in a deep voice, "Issue a reward to summon renowned physicians from all over the world. Whoever can cure the old lady will be richly rewarded by the Chu family."

Although the Chu family has declined in status, their foundation remains extremely deep. Whether it's gold, silver, money, or rare treasures, they can provide them. Even if other conditions are proposed, they can usually fulfill them.

Lady Changguo agreed and left.

Chu Tianming was also very heavy-hearted. He said, "Father, I know many people in the martial arts world. I'll go and ask if we can find a divine doctor to treat Grandmother."

Marquis Changguo nodded and waved for him to leave.

When Chu Tianming left, he saw Wei Yunluo huddled in a corner, looking lost in thought, her eyes vacant and dim, as if she were pondering something.
